RE: The diary game | 25-08-2021 | steemit wallet hack. Can't breath

Hi @utsavsaxena11. Really sorry to hear about this.

Please change your Key auths immediately! If your wallet is compromised, that is the first thing that you should be doing.

Third thing, If steemit community is so much secured then how my wallet get hacked?

In the blockchain world, your keys are only as secure as you store them. If you had them in your email, whenever your email got hacked, you lost your private keys as well. If you had on your local computer, any attacker who has access to it also has access to your keys.

At this moment, it's impossible to say how exactly your keys were compromised. Let me know if you came across any phishing comments/posts lately.

Sort:  

Yes, @starlord ..even I don't know how my keys get compromised. All the keys are secured to a place where no one can reach. But I still don't know how this happen to me.

Yes, I will let you know about it, if I got any comment. Thankyou so much for your comment and information.

When I saw comment by professor about this unwanted transaction. At that time only I changed my keys.
